BEFORE YOU SEE THE SHOW
→ ACTIVITY #1: THE IDEAL IMAGE
"Everyone will know tomorrow, by the
end of lunch, who you really are..."
This activity draws inspiration from a
popular drama exercise to allow students
to physically explore the differences
between one’s ‘true’ self and the curated
self often presented online. It’s a great
way to experiment with layering body
language onto a character and physically
inhabiting characters who are exaggerated
or extreme.
Time: 30 Mins
Year Level: 9+
You’ll Need: A clear space large
enough for participants to move
around.
Curriculum Connections:

Dramatic Techniques: Exploring
extremes of characterisation, body
language as symbol
1. Divide into two groups: performers
and audience. Performers pair-up
into Sculptors and Statues. Statues
stand in a neutral position.
2. Sculptors mould their statues into
poses as though they’re having
their photo taken - or taking a
photo of themselves - for social
media. Sculptors may not speak but
can shape their statues by gently
moving them physically or
demonstrating fine movements or
fa c i a l ex p re s s i o n s. O n c e a l l
sculptors have finished they step
back and allow the audience to see
their creations.
